A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechancis (Mechanical Engineering)

Rating:
Summary: Great first text
Review: This was the book used for my first course in fluid mechanics and it was great. The text is easy to understand and follow. Example problems are done out fully. The material in the book is not in-depth enough to make it a great reference, but as far as instruction goes, this book is superb. Another great part of this book is that it is not as expensive as other texts. A new copy of the second edition was less than $40 at the campus bookstore.

A note to instructors, the solution manual (which is also excellent) is readily available online - or at least it used to be.
